      Lesson 1 for Week of January 3,

      2021

      AN AMAZING MESSENGER

      UNIFYING TOPIC:

      Called to Proclaim

      LESSON TEXT

      I. A Dramatic Reading (Luke 4:14–19)

      II. A Phenomenal Claim (Luke 4:20–22)

      THE MAIN THOUGHT

      The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To preach the acceptable year of the Lord. Luke 4:18–19, KJV

      UNIFYING PRINCIPLE

      People hear conflicting messages and proclamations all of the time. What message would provide answers to life’s deepest problems? The worshipers at Nazareth listened to Jesus’ proclamation of justice and compassion and were amazed at his gracious words.

      LESSON AIM

      To understand how Jesus appropriates Isaiah’s words to announce the beginning of His ministry.

      LIFE AIM

      To emulate Jesus’ willingness to follow God’s agenda for His people.

      BEFORE YOU TEACH

      Consider . . .

      Focus for College and Career—Young adults greet promises from leaders with a mixture of hope and skepticism.

      Focus for Adult Christian Life—Mature adults are proud when a young man or woman from their hometown is successful and revel in recalling stories about that person before he or she was famous.

      Supplementary Study Materials

      For further reference, see today’s lesson from Boyd’s Commentary, New National Baptist Hymnal, 21st Century Edition, #418.

      TEACHING STEPS. . . . 

      First Step: Ask the class to talk about the promises of political leaders and how they feel about those promises.

      Second Step: Read the key verse and ask them to list the promise made in it.

      Third Step: Discuss how your faith in Christ satisfies you that Christ’s promises have not been broken for you.

      Fourth Step: Ask the group what can they do to promote the promises of Christ to other people?

      Fifth Step: Give the class a quiz in which class members match famous people with the small towns in which they were born. Discuss the quiz after revealing the answers. Did these people remain in their hometowns? Why or why not?

      God’s Word in Life

      There was no greater political moment in American history for African Americans and many others who longed for change in American politics, than Barack Obama’s victory election speech to thousands gathered in Chicago’s Grant Park on November 4, 2008. It was a night filled with the hope of a new day when so much skepticism in the past had brought disappointment to so many. The new young black president-elect electrified his audience with the promise that change had come. There were to be new jobs, open doors of opportunity once closed to many, the promotion of peace, and pronouncement that the American dream was still alive and well. The address by Obama was coined the Yes We Can speech. Sadly, in 2020 many of those who were once lifted by those words, now were wondering if it was all for nothing. With new leadership came skepticism, the once proud moments of national and cultural heritage of America and its relations with African-Americans had faded as quickly as it came. Can a mere human bring such needed permanent change into the lives of those who feel hopeless? In today’s lesson, from the Gospel of Luke, we learn of a true hope that is both anchored in power from heaven and grounded in a truth that outlasts all forms of falsehood. It is the call and mission of the Messiah. He is both the message and the messenger who delivers the promise of the Lord’s favor rather than the Lord’s wrath.

      Connect with Learners: Jesus was literate in an illiterate world. What does this passage tell us about Jesus’ education if anything?

      Introduction

      Every prophet of the Old Testament had a calling. Each had a point in time they could point to where they became convinced that the God of heaven had chosen them personally for His purposes. Each calling was unique to its time and circumstance in the life of Israel and the God they gave their allegiance. Samuel was awakened in his sleep by God and called to serve as a prophet (1 Samuel 3). Jeremiah was born into a family of priests and believed life would be in the priesthood until God stepped into his life and called him to convey His word to Judah. Additionally, Isaiah, whose words, are quoted by Jesus in our lesson, was not only called by God but was shown a vision of the throne of heaven and all of God’s glory (Isaiah 6). To speak for God, one must be called and sent. Those called in the Old Testament were beaten, stripped of all livelihood, and imprisoned for their work and loyalty to God. The rewards of being called by God and serving His will are not worldly. Our lesson tells us of the calling and ministry of Jesus. Unlike past and contemporary political leaders whose power and scope of office is limited, the calling and scope of Jesus’ ministry encompasses all of His Father’s creation. It is the story of a long-promised event by God to restore justice and order a world gone astray.

      I. A Dramatic Reading (Luke 4:14–19)

      The call and ministry of Jesus cannot be referenced without mentioning the scene of his baptism with John the Baptist and the words uttered from heaven, You are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased (Luke 3:22). The Gospel of John gives a more detailed account of this period that includes many of the details surrounding the ministry and death of John the Baptist the last true prophet of the Old Testament era. However, both gospels affirm Jesus’ presence to identify with and represent the people he had come to save. The Trinitarian nature of God is demonstrated at the Baptism. One God who exists in three equal persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. To say that Jesus came in the Power of the Spirit is to highlight that though He is Word in flesh, human, His ministry is guided and aided by the Holy Spirit. Present-day leaders are also expected to depend on the guidance and aid of the Holy Spirit. Jesus’ commitment was tested as the Spirit led Him into the wilderness to tempted by the devil for forty days (Luke 4: 1–13). Many praised Jesus meaning that aside from John the Baptist, teaching with power and authority had been absent. Their hearts were filled with hope and joy.

      In our lesson, Jesus returns to Galilee which was His home. It was close to the sea of Galilee. The Sea of Galilee is seventy-five miles from Jerusalem by road, but much further in its approach to religion and politics. Recall Jews from Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to the Jordan River to find out the identity of John the Baptist and his purpose (John 1:19). John preached of a coming Savior who would take away the sins of the world. Jesus’ entrance into the local Galilean synagogue was a normal behavior of His and most Jews at the time. His father Joseph, the carpenter, reared Jesus to be a faithful adherent to the Torah and regular in attendance at the synagogue. His family would have been known by all, as it is with small churches today. In the synagogue, women would sit on one side and men on the other. Like all synagogue worship one would expect the Shema to be recited, The Lord our Lord is One, singing of victory songs from Egyptian slavery, and perhaps victory songs from Babylonian captivity. However, the main attraction of synagogue worship would be the reading of the Scriptures. Churches today who ask its congregate to stand for the reading of God’s Word can be traced here and during the time of the prophets. A ruler or elder presided over the synagogue worship service and perhaps called on Jesus to read from what would have been the daily reading much like a lectionary reading in many churches. Jesus was simply reading the Scriptures in a worship service when this event took place. As a good Jew, He was participating in
